Ron, I am researching & drawing plans for a HAB replica in Sloggi "skin", since I am a big fan of 'nose art'. Can't beat the art on the Sloggi promotional balloons! However, my efforts will most likely take a while as I figure out how to manually 'unfold' the beastie. I actually would like...

Just found this And must commend you on a wonderful bit of working out the 'bugs' - you're setting a great example for all of us to follow. I look forward to all your mods... hope I can do it justice. Regards, Robert

Unzipping Eric, I think the issue is the way the archive is compressed, it is not compatible with the WinZIP because it is 'double-compressed'. When I open it using Total Commander, it displayes it as an archive within an archive, something I have noticed with several folks' compressed files...

Ug-Lee: Nice job on your Time Machine. What printer & paper did you use? The colors look really good... Thanks!

The guys at PM offered some advice; I took the EXE for installing the NH90 and ran it, installed it to a folder, then opened the model using the utility and it worked! That was as far as I got with it, just too busy at the moment to explore it in any detail, but you might give it a go. Find...

AP, I inquired around and apparently there is a utility for download at PaperModelers.com that can be used to convert MS FLight models into a format that Pepapakura can then 'unfold' (short version of process.) I downloaded it and was looking at it, but am still on the low end of the "learning...

PS: The C-130 is a 'paper airplane' glider design, not a "scale" model.:cry:

Can they be used as a "3D" source for creating paper models? The SIMS guys do a lot of design and trading of their Flight models, which might be a cool resource for us paper geeks... if we can just figure out how to use their work. Just an idea... Regards, Robert

If anyone knows how... to take a MS Flight simulator model and "turn it" into a paper model, then there is a free downloadable NH90 model at: 3w.airforce.mil.nz/gallery/download/nh-90-helicopter.htm (replace the '3w' with 'www') Sounds like a job for "Super-Paper-Model-Designer-Man"...

Curious Uhu02, may I ask about your motivation for creating the Tinkerbell model? Perhaps making your designing "muscles" stronger?:thumb: May I also say I find it is very nice. Good composition and pose - displays the character's personality well. Great art! I have begun working on it...

Elliott, pipe dream as in "what're you smoking, anyway?" Jim, some true artistry. Thank you for sharing your work & (more importantly) techniques. One note on the colors - the star & bar blue ("insignia blue") is normally a lot darker shade, almost black in appearance under some lighting...

How was it done? Just what is the secret of that natural metal finish? Special paper, or special technique? Thanks for the info... Regards, Robert

Salute I salute your creativity. I'm sure the skills you are learning will only expand your modeling capabilities. You certainly have selected a subject with a lot of variety in versions & markings. Good work! Regards, Robert

Hello all, very glad to join the group. Just recently got interested in the world of paper modeling while surfing about and was very impressed by the range and beauty of PM models on the web. I've been a long time plastic modeler (primarily) though I do recall when I was about 6 or 7 years...
